To think I'm ugly and plain looking?

[feelawfu]

I've been single around 8 years. Recently met someone but sabotaging so much as I genuinely feel so so ugly and plain. From my hair to my face. I am worrying about positing this as a lot of the time people are accused of trying to gain compliments etc. I swear to got I'm not trying to do that. I have struggled with self image since I've been a young teen and would love WOMENS real opinions. I don't trust men with this as they will compliment away and then break my heart.

I think you're attractive but I've heard it said time and time again on here that self confidence makes you more attractive. Easier said than done I know as I struggle with this myself some days.

You're neither ugly or plain though

But not pretty either

You are categorically, 100% not ugly or plain. You may benefit from some work on your self-esteem/counselling.

You are not plain at all! You are very pretty. You have very clear skin, lovely shaped eyes and brows and a beautiful smile. You need to start believing in yourself.

You are very attractive

You aren’t a raving beauty (hardly anyone is) but you are good looking.

Can you afford to see a therapist to work through whatever is causing this? It would really be worth some investment.

Why would anyone put their photo on Mumsnet?

I feel like I get this a lot on Mumsnet and no one is going to be honest and tell me the truth

OP I think you are pretty. You have gorgeous clear skin that I am so envious of (43 and still getting spots)
I really hope you find the strength to be kind to yourself about your appearance. You look lovely

I don't really care if anyone recognises me. I'll put my number up to prove I am who I say if you want.

Your gorgeous!
Go and embrace it all

I don't trust men with this as they will compliment away and then break my heart.

You need to work on your boundaries then. Recognise early signs of poor behaviour and potential poor behaviour.

You are bloody gorgeous!
Please don't beat your self up. You need to feel better about yourself, because a bit if self confidence goes a long way.
So stop being a victim, go out and live your life x

You're fine. No, you're not plain or ugly, if that's any help at all. But I don't think posting photos is going to help you, and there's always a spiteful poster or two ready to put the boot in on any of these threads.

Jesus

I suppose it's better than repulsive 😁

I think you look quite sweet, much nicer skin than mine, how old are you?

The hairdos not right though I'm sorry to say, I wouldn't be rushing for a fringe but there's gotta be a hairstyle that softens your hairline.

You are nice looking in a natural way which I think is good. I find you way more beautiful than the women with lip fillers and other so called beauty interventions. Self esteem is what you need.

I think you need to take this down. Anyone who sees this and recognises you could exploit your worries about your appearance.

Even the most beautiful women get messed around by men and have their fair share of strife to deal with!

I think you are beautiful! Amazing face and skin I would love to have

Please work on your self esteem. The PP deserves to be reported, not humoured.

🤢

I don't think that would mean much to anyone. Hardly helpful either. Not meaning to be rude.
